Twitter, Tweets and Tips

Hey guys,
    First of all, I want to say how much I really love going on twitter and seeing the frenzy that is developing.  It is a very exciting time in my life.  I mean I started my twitter account in early June and I had like 18 followers for a month.  Then I had my good friend Maddie do a shout out for me and it boosted me to 500 followers. Once I started with Radio Disney's NBT, I have sky rocketed to almost 5,000 followers.  That is pretty cool.
     I get tweets from people all over the world telling me all kinds of things that make a kid like me feel great.  And I do!  I feel so special and I am forever grateful to all of my fans, friends and family that support me here on Twitter.
     I do however, want to address a few things, so I can help make things a lot easier for all of us.  I want you all to know.  I do not ignore anyone.  I appreciate anyone who takes the time to tweet me.  That means you are thinking of me.  If you take the time to think of me, I am going to take the time to respond to you.  It doesn't cost anything to be nice.
     I do not employ a team of people to be on my twitter all day and tweet frequently answered questions to all of you.  I answer my tweets and I am only 14.  I am known for my dancing and for being athletic. I don't sit still to well. LOL.  I also am not a big typer.  So, I do the best I can to respond as quickly as I can.
     If I am away from the computer for awhile and I get online, I try to go to the bottom of the page first and go from the oldest and answer all the way up to the newest.  A lot of the times I can not even get up to the top because I hit my limit. I hit it twice just today.
     I have a few tips, that I hope you don't mind reading, so this way, you won't be so frustrated when you do not get a reply right away.  If you want me to follow you, I will follow you if you ask me to one time.  If you ask me 15 times in 3 minutes, I won't we can try again the next day.  Please be polite, I am polite to you, please be polite to me.
     I will follow anyone who asks because when I say no, it would be like me saying no to you for an autograph.  So, I do follow.  If I do not follow you immediately, it is for these reasons.... you asked me a bunch of times in a short period of time, you were rude about it or I just plainly did not see it.  If it is because I did not see it ask me again at a later time.
     Direct messages or DM's..... I do not want to give anyone the wrong impression.  But, I hardly go on DM's for the simple reason, that I have a hard enough time trying to answer my tweets and facebook page.  I use DM's if I am going to call a fan and I ask for you to send a DM to me so I can privately get your phone # without anyone posting it publicly.
      Phone #'s Please don't ever post your phone # in a public reply.  It is dangerous and I do not want to ever feel bad about someone pranking you or harassing you, because you posted your # for the world to see.
      Phone Calls...... I few times a week, I try to make phone calls to people. I get asked all the time, who do I pick for phone calls.  I pick out someone who I see on my page frequently.  Who is nice, genuine, polite and someone who is always doing something nice.  Like tweeting on my behalf, or making a photo for me, or writing something very sweet to me.  Or someone who is just really supportive.  I notice those things and I will pick out a few people a few times a week to call.
      Who I will not pick to call.... I will not pick people who say, "Call me"  Or ask for me to call them repeatedly on my page.  I see you and I see people all the time who are patient and genuine.  I like to call as many people as I can. I really like to call people, because it connects me with you.  A lot of times, you can not come and see me at a show or see me at a meet and greet.  So it is my way of making a connection with you and letting you know I appreciate you.  I never want to get to a point where it becomes too stressful, where I have to stop calling.  And if I did call you, please let other people have their turn.
      I, also do not give out my # so please do not ask for me to text you or to call you from my personal #.  I just can not do that.  So please understand that and respect that. I would really appreciate it.  I honestly, appreciate all of you.  It really makes me feel super excited that all of you have supported me so much.  I am just like WOW!  I can't believe it sometimes.
      I promise that I will always do my best for you.  I practice hard, I perform hard and I will always be dedicated to my fans, because I know without you, I am nothing.  Just understand I am 14 years old.  I like to do the same things you like to do.  I love to hang out with my friends, go to the park, the movies. I like to shoot hoops and play my xBox.  Just try to understand I am one person who does the best he can to respond to everyone.
      I also have another way to reach me that is a little more personal and interactive.  You can join me on facebook at www.facebook.com/TheOfficialZackMontana Thank all of you so much for reading this and I look forward to tweeting with you soon! Follow your dreams

  2. Hey Zack! I don't have a twitter or Facebook so I know you don't like people asking to call you, but I have no other way of asking. -.- My birthday is on December 14th and that would make it the best birthday of my life if I heard from you. So if you could please respond to this message and maybe we can work something out. (:
